It is using all resources to do what it was told to.

Results depend on the magnitude of the task and the hardware available with a very large overlap where the difference doesn't matter at all.

If blowing up complexity everywhere to solve a problem you probably wont have is a good thing is left as an exercise for the reader.

I agree. The right thing to do is to wait for the task to finish. I wrote that first line in jest,

I’m making fun of the notion that blocking = slow = unresponsive.
